When I moved to Japan in 2013, I didn’t just cross an ocean—I crossed into a completely new chapter of life. As a Puerto Rican American expat, navigating culture, language, and identity reshaped how I saw the world and myself. I was training in martial arts, teaching, and exploring how digital tools could connect communities.

That mix of movement, culture, and communication became the spark for Social Gelo. I started the podcast to share conversations with fighters, coaches, and creatives—real people with real stories. It quickly grew into something bigger: a space where psychology, martial arts, and branding meet.

Over the years, I’ve worked with fighters, small business owners, and entrepreneurs—helping them understand how to tell their story online and connect in a way that’s authentic and impactful. I’ve built systems, strategies, and content that don’t just look good—they work.

This journey is still ongoing. I’m still learning, training, coaching, and helping others turn their passion into presence.
